Paul Mocettini Killed Instantly by Auto
An automobile struck down and killed instantly Paul Mocettini about 7:50 o'clock Sunday evening, September 23rd, as he attempted to cross Highway 101, six miles north of San Rafael. The driver stopped his car within ten feet and was absolved of the blame, following investigation by the coroner and sheriff of Marin county.
The remains were taken to Keaton's mortuary in San Rafael pending identification which was conclusively determined by his brother-in-law, Peter Solari, of Petaluma, late Monday, and relatives in St. Helena were notified Tuesday.
The Hans Jensen Memorial Chapel returned him to St. Helena, Tuesday afternoon.
